As the season approaches it's most critical stretch for the Ducks, so too do the seasons of Duck Commits. This week, as high school playoff season fast approaches, we get to see just how important our commits are to their teams. Duck commits are four-year starters, two-way starters and, most importantly, they are leaders both on and off the field.

Some of our commits have obvious Oregon ties; others have, as yet, unknown Oregon ties. As we learn more about our current commits, we learn the direction of the Ducks as a program. The current Ducks are performing brilliantly on the field this season and so are our future Ducks.
